I noticed that the MimeType of xcf files is correctly detected by nautilus, however, file detects application/octet-stream (which is a synonym of unknown) instead of image/x-xcf. GNOME use MimeTypes to identify files and GIMP registers the image/x-xcf MimeType in his desktop file in /usr/share/applications.
